Weber Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Who has the best price on the Mr bullet feeder? Anywhere that carries it offer a military discount? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 I think they are sold at a set price? I would register with shooters connection for the BENOS forum discount then see what they sell it for. Even without any discount I would still order from shooters connection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWFAN Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 SC is a good choice, another choice is direct from Rick. The guy has always bent over backwards for me, answered dumb questions, offered to replace parts, most recently on a used BF I bought that got a broken part in shipping, etc. You can't beat the customer service he gives.

Weber Posted May 2, 2016 Author Share Posted May 2, 2016 Midway seems to have the best price because of shipping. Which normally is not the case but they can have it here on weds for $16 in shipping. SC was $37. I called SC and he said there wasn't much he could do but did offer a small discount. I asked about the military and I assume it would be the same or less for membership discount.

The guy from SC told me the product is now made overseas and is imported. How does the mr bullet feeder die work compared to the hornady feeders?

Foxbat Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Rick is class act. Comparing the MBF to Hornady is unfair to Hornady: it loses an all counts, and then some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Rick is class act. Comparing the MBF to Hornady is unfair to Hornady: it loses an all counts, and then some. Agreed in all counts. I bought mine direct from Rick. Very nice guy and extremely helpful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weber Posted May 2, 2016 Author Share Posted May 2, 2016 Care to give some info? Nothing online I have read s the hornady is noisier and rifle and pistol are separate units. I'm leaning towards the mrb, but want to make the right choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWFAN Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Most of us don't have experience with the Hornady, because we made the right choice, the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Did they modify the Hornady to where it doesn't run continuously? I know that used to be a major drawback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Are you running a Dillon press? If so, stay with the theme of using top notch gear and get the MBF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxbat Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Did they modify the Hornady to where it doesn't run continuously? I know that used to be a major drawback. I did modify the one I had with the sensor, so it would not run continuously, plus a tight sound-proof lid, and it was still a horrible nuisance. Huge, bulky... its strong point is low cost.

I was planning on only using it for brass prep, but now thinking I want to be able to load on it as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeerBaron Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 There is no comparison. The ONLY thing the hornady has in its favour is price. Mr bf is quieter Mr bf has a better dropper system Mr bf works with coated lead Mr bf will feed bullets right way up and will flip bullets that are upside down and feed them (this makes it near twice as fast as the hornady as it relies on bullets landing in grooves the correct way all others get kicked back to try again) Mr bf is easy to adjust for different size/type bullets Most importantly when setup right mr bf is super reliable. I basically never get an upside down bullet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
